Paradox diffuse une nouvelle jolie bande-annonce pour confirmer quand arrivera sur nos écrans ce jeu allant mêler de façon très originale gestion d’escouades, frissons, combats tactiques, aventures, ambiance satirique et le contexte peu fréquent des années 30.
Les bouts d’images et extraits que l’on aperçoit furtivement semblent montrer un jeu qui pourrait s’avérer une des très bonnes surprises de la fin de l’année. On en saura plus dans quelques mois, quand le gameplay sera plus amplement dévoilé.

“In The Lamplighters League, you command characters, not units,” said Chris Rogers, Game Director for The Lamplighters League at Harebrained Schemes. “Your Agents have unique abilities and upgrades allowing for powerful gameplay combinations for you to discover in missions. Each of your characters has a shadowy past and their own reason for joining the fight. Some like each other more than others, and you’ll see that on and off the battlefield.”
The Lamplighters League is an original pulp adventure set in an alternate 1930s, challenging players to use a mix of real-time infiltration, tactical turn-based combat, and team management to thwart the plans of the Banished Court, a tyrannical cult on the cusp of world domination. To stop the Banished Court in its tracks, players must:
Recruit the Best of the Worst: Scour the globe to recruit outlaws and outcasts before the Banished Court catches them first. Learn their stories and the world they inhabit by taking them on tactical missions.
Play Dirty: Each misfit brings a signature style to the fight through unique moves that can turn the tide of combat. Sneak past enemies in real-time infiltration gameplay, pick off stragglers quietly, or strategically position your squad to get the upper hand. Every mission earns the team resources and advances each character’s unique ability.
Leave No Stone Unturned: Explore a variety of thrilling locales, from dockyards and deserts to jungles both urban and wild. With dynamic map generation, no two missions unfold the same. Analyze the battlefield to see what enemies, items, and cover are in the area to plan your attack.
